First aid for appointed persons

Who is it for?

Suitable for people 18 years and over, this course is designed for staff who work in lower risk environments, have a small number of staff, or where HSE guidelines indicate a first aider is not necessary. Training to qualify as an accredited first aider is available on the first aid at work or emergency first aid at work course.

Please note, if you have staff members with asthma, allergies, diabetes or a heart condition – and these are detailed in your risk assessment – the HSE recommends that you consider completing the three day first aid at work course. This is because these conditions are no longer covered in the first aid for appointed persons or emergency first aid at work course.
